7 LLUVIA DE TU CIELO
Rain from your sky
Era un bohío tras un cafetal muy triste y sombrío
It was a hut by a coffee field, very sad and gloomy
Nadie en siembra puede cultivar se ah secado el río
No one in the field can cultivate, the river has dried up
Se escucho el lamento de un hombre rogando a los elementos
The lament of a man pleading to the elements was heard
Hay si la lluvia quisiera caer la cosecha se puede salvar
Oh, if only the rain would fall, the harvest could be saved
Si quisiera caer tendremos sustento
If it would fall, we'll have sustenance
Canta coro canta, canta y repite mi ruego
Sing chorus, sing, sing and repeat my plea
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Si la siembra se muere sin nada me quedo
If the crops die, with nothing I'll remain
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Lluvia, lluvia, lluvia de tu cielo sereno
Rain, rain, rain from your serene sky
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Aguacero de mayo ven cae en febrero
Downpour of May, come fall in February
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Eh, eh pa que a la siembra no le pase nada
Eh, eh so that nothing happens to the crops
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Al santo le vengo a rezar
To the saint I come to pray
(Lluvia de cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Debe ser que rezo bajo y no me pué escuchar
It must be that I pray low and he can't hear me
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Que llueva que llueva ya
Let it rain, let it rain now
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Ya no hay agua los ríos no hay agua pana pana
There's no water, the rivers have no water, man, man
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Por el monte ay se escucha un lamento
Through the mountain, oh, a lament is heard
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Lluvia cae lluvia pa que tengamos sustento
Rain falls, rain so we can have sustenance
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Yo no, no yo no, no no te pido riquezas mi dios
I don't, no I don't, no, no I'm not asking for wealth, my God
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Te pido lluvia pues sin la lluvia se muere to
I ask for rain for without the rain everything dies
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Que será de mis hijos, que será de mi esposa que será de mi hogar
What will become of my children, what will become of my wife, what will become of my home
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Que será del bohío y de mi cafetal
What will become of the hut and of my coffee field
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Anda ay manda un aguacero la tierra seca esta
Come, oh send a downpour, the earth is dry
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
Santo ay santo bueno venme ayudar
Saint, oh good saint, come help me
(Lluvia de tu cielo)
(Rain from your sky)
